Altogether a very enjoyable and informing movie. one thing Im always weary about when watching these movies about a famous musician or entertainer is that there never completely true and sometimes very far off.

I have no idea about anything relating to Ray Charles so I cant say if this movie is true or not but it entertained me and was done very well.

Jamie Foxx is extraordinary in this and from the videos on youtube, does a very good job of being Ray Charles.

7/10
Foxx is fantastic, however this movie suffered from a lot of cliches (especially those common to bio movies), Foxx makes it worthwhile, but Walk the Line IMO delt with the bio movie formula a lot more tastefully and convincingly, without being as hokey and manipulative.
